ROCKET (Whiting 1945) 
One of the deepest colored of the 
new, intensely bright, deep orangy 
toned yellows. The plant is a pro- 
lific increaser that produces loads 
of its nicely formed, wide petaled, 
vividly colored flowers. Especially 
effective when planted in a semi- 
shaded spot. 32-34 in. stalks. 715 
RODEO (DeForest 1947) 
Plicata, and a big, breezy one with 
nearly horizontal falls that's as 
conspicuous as a "ten-gallon" hat in 
Paris. S a creamy gold, the widely 
flaring falls white with gold edges, 
the light markings a buckskin-brown. 
Very large flowers, big plant, tall 
stalks - it really puts on quite a 
"big time show". 36-40" stalks. 1.00 
ROSABELLA (Kleinsorge 1951) 
An early bloomer that will start your 
iris season off in great style. A 
deep but clear, bright reddish-rose 
self with rich, metallic, coppery 
shades at the haft and up into the 
base of the S. Huge, widely flaring, 
wide petaled flowers and a husky 
plant with 3 to 4 ft. stalks. 2.00 
SHERIFFA (White 1941) 
Onco-Regelia hybrid. This is "tops! 
in iridescent, metallic luster. A 
big, blocky, deep blue-purple flower 
that's darker at the edges with the 
petal centers shadowed with bronze 
undertones which give it a burnished 
metallic finish. 36 in. stalks, ths 
SKY RANGER (Hall 1948) 
A giant in size and an excellent all 
round iris as well. It's a smooth, 
clear colored medium blue self with 
huge, beautifully formed, heavily 
ruffled flowers with flaring falls. 
It's not just a big iris that has size 
and nothing else but an excellent, 
nicely colored, well balanced iris 
that's just naturally big all over. 
Heavy stalks 38 to 42 in. tall. tie 
SNOW FLURRY (Rees 1939) 
Crisp, sparkling, icy-white flowers 
all frilled and fluted and lovely. 
Branching a bit short but perfectly 
exquisite, big, blocky, ruffled 
flowers. A great favorite of many 
years standing. 36-38" stalks. »65
